The Role of Reading in English Language Acquisition
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Reading plays a vital role in English language acquisition as it helps learners improve vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension skills. Through reading, students are exposed to various sentence structures, idiomatic expressions, and contextual usage of words, which enhances their language proficiency. It also increases motivation and interest in learning, especially when learners choose materials that match their interests and level. Reading not only develops language input but also supports other language skills such as writing and speaking. Furthermore, it encourages independent learning and critical thinking. Effective reading strategies and regular reading habits can significantly speed up the process of acquiring English. Therefore, reading is considered one of the most effective and accessible tools in second language learning.
